Women, We are Marvels!

Because I have been hearing and reading so much about this subject lately, I came up with this poem. Hopefully it is well done; I do not usually write poems. So if this is not good, I am sorry; but I do like the 3rd line. hehehehe!!! ;-)

Radio, social media , tv are all talking about women

Some are classifying us as objects, not good for muchSaying we can’t be leaders or rulers because we don’t
have semenThey need their egos intact and inflated; greed is their
crutch

Others saying we can be superwoman. Can be strong

and have emotions; be kind, still be leaders.An admired lady speaking at UN, representing. We belong.Stopping uneducated drivel, the equality others try to
censor

More than vaginas, periods, emotions with cooking skills

More than boobs, baby-nursing and lower wagesEqual we are,
just like the others; we’re more than giving thrills.Intelligent, creative, witty; while the others try to keep
us in cages

Just like the others are supposed to be good for more

than bar drinks, food tabs, door holders and better
driversJust like they are supposed to be smarter, stronger and
so sureOf themselves, thinking they’re secret agent Macgyvers

We are more than soft, blabbing irrational beings

We are more than silly girls who laugh at their dumb
jokesWe vote, educate, lead, heal. Do more than wild dreaming.Damn it, we are WOMEN.Strong. Capable. Marvelous. Greatness
we invoke!

===============================================================Since at the beginning of this whole adventure I promised puns for nearly every post, here is today's pun courtesy, as always, of the interwebs:

Smaller babies may be delivered by stork but the heavier ones need a crane

About Me

I am happily married and work full-time in the personal lines insurance industry. Hubby and I eloped to Las Vegas in May 2009 and then became dog parents in January 2010. Dog takes up quite a bit of time but he is goofy and so much fun.

My early years were made of riding horses and competing in various events in rodeos. That was a great way to grow up. Hubby and I moved to Atlanta in 2007. I really enjoyed living in the city and all of the exciting things you can do here; then we moved in 2014 to NC and now live in the out in country. Quite a different pace of life to say the least!
